Seller claims it's real...I don't know enough about these to know what to look for. Thoughts?

Apparently it came out of the Merle Duprey estate sale.

The 130mph hash mark "appears" to be in the correct location. Can't really tell without a quality close up.

On all original 1969 speedometers you can see the imprint of the numbers on the back side of the speedometer. It is odd that someone painted the backside of the speedometer gray. To me that would be a big red flag.

New re-pops are almost perfect. I'd hate to be hanging onto an original waiting for the prices to go up!
